Which stage of enshittification is this?

As a driver for one of these apps it's more of a bid than a tip. People send me bids to deliver their food and I deliver to the highest bidder. It sucks because that's not what a tip is supposed to be and the majority of the delivery fee doesn't go to the driver. That's why I don't really order from these delivery apps myself anymore.

Yes, and next we will have: No tip to cook and you will have delayed ordered preparation, No tip to Doordash and we will delay placing your order.

It's time to just cook the meal or go buy it directly.

The worst part is some lazy restaurants just link to doordash instead of paying proper delivery drivers so you can't even avoid door dash if you like certain restaurants.

Don't like the concept, stop using the service. It's that simple.

But also that annoying, because this model where your ""tip"" becomes a bribe is a cancer upon society that needs to be eliminated.

They should also warn that they'll spit in your food too.

Holding your food hostage for tips. lmao. Just pick it up yourself or drive-thru and make it part of your existing commute.

Cold food would be an improvement over the last three times I ordered food with DoorDash. Last three times, the driver stole my food. I'll never use them again.

One of the many reasons I get my own damn food. I'm not paying out the ass for something I could do myself for half the price.

How about I just get food from one of the 15 places in easy walking distance as I'm in a city.

I frequently find food bag have been opened when a doordasher delivers orders. It's odd because the tracker typically shows the dasher stopping in weird residential areas and parking for extended periods of time.

'That's a really nice and hot meal you've got there. It would be a shame if it were to be... how you say... room temperature when it arrived.'

I hate Doorsdash so fucking much but I'm pretty sure I'm addicted to it. It's one of those terrible destructive relationships and I find myself screaming at the app every time I use it. I recently discovered a neat trick though, where if I order from the website then the app won't spam me with the double-dash popup but I'll still get my delivery statuses.
